Friday in the Rockies
I'm planning on going for my first tour in the Rockies (1st in the Rockies, not touring) this Friday. I'll be on teles and I hope I'm in good shape. If anyone wants to join me they are more than welcome. drbekker@yahoo.comI went up to Hero's Knob. Looked like the majority of it had slid this week. There was about a 6 to 8 inch layer of corn on top that was quite soft (and great to ski in). I tested out the unslid snow at the top of the run and it moved right away, so I stuck to the areas that had already slid, but were still reasonably soft. Once the pitch lessened it was great surfy snow. One or two more days will make crossing the creeks significantly more difficult.
